Not Kahoot. Look, I love Kahoot! as much as the next guy, but I think we can all admit that it's a bit overused. I think we've all walked down the hallway where seven classrooms are all playing Kahoot! and it sounds like a circus. Sometimes students crave the simplicity of an old style game. Check out some of the examples below! Fair warning... I love Google Slides. I love it. However, some of these games do work better with PowerPoint. A sacrilegious sentiment from someone who advocates for Google tools I know. However, we as teachers cannot become glued to a specific way of going about our business. Utilize the best tool to complete the task at hand! Just another reason to have many tools in your toolbox!

1. Concentration
1. Concentration
This is a really simple concept. Put any type of picture you want behind the numbered boxes. You would of course want to have two of each picture somewhere on the board. Have students select two numbers, delete those boxes, and if they aren't matches, hit the undo button (CTRL+Z) twice. If they are the same, leave them deleted. Simple stuff!

2. Logo Reveal
2. Logo Reveal
Behind the boxes, place any image you like (logos in this case) and send it to the back. Then, delete the boxes one at a time. Slowly, different parts of the image will appear. The first to guess correctly what is behind the boxes, wins!
